Transfer of undertakings: Employees were not employed in part of undertaking transferred

This report relates to 1 case(s)

There was no error of
law in an employment tribunal's decision that two employees were not employed in
branches of a chain of estate agents that were transferred to another estate
agency, holds the Court of Appeal in Jones and another v Darlows Estate Agency
6.7.98 Court of Appeal. The tribunal had correctly asked itself whether or not the employees were
assigned to the part of the undertaking transferred; it had made findings of
fact that they were not, having been retained to deal with other branches that
were not transferred; and its reasoning was not defective.
